The rim really steps up this drink. Let us know what you think of it in the comments below! Each sip is a burst of flavor, pairing bitter coffee with sweet vanilla, creamy chocolate and the fruity finish of Irish whiskey. It’s the ideal after dinner drink for coffee addicts (like us). Here’s how to make it! This Coffee Martini pairs the rich creaminess of Irish cream with the traditional vodka and Kahlua combination. Here’s what you’ll need:
Coffee, brewed using any method Vodka Coffee liqueur (like Kahlua or other) Irish cream (like Baileys or other) Coffee beans and sugar, for the rim
Pour over: We used a Chemex to make pour over coffee for this cocktails, which we use every morning. Cold brew concentrate: It’s simple to use cold brew concentrate in a martini! You can buy a bottle or make homemade cold brew coffee. French press: This coffee martini is great with French Press coffee or French Press espresso. Espresso maker: You can also make an Americano for this coffee if you have an espresso maker. Coffee maker: Any coffee maker you have will do.
Grind the coffee beans very finely. You’ll only need a handful of beans. Place it in a flat layer on a plate with the same amount of sugar. Wet the glass rim. We actually used the wet coffee filter from our coffee to rim it! Dip the outer edge of the rim into the glass, gently turning the rim. All you need is the outside of the glass to be covered, not the inside.
